Thanks, same to you.
FWIW, it still looks like we stay on the all snow side of the region, although we both been through this rodeo before.
I always thought it would be great to start the winter with a major sleet bomb and then keep piling snowfalls on top of it (the XC skier in me). One can dream.
This will probably turn out pretty well. Even for the places that get a lot of sleet, it's gonna be the best sleet evah!
Merry Christmas, happy festivus, happy St. Swithin's Day, what ever Stokes yer snowblower.
Haven't dug into any soundings, but I suspect near the northeast edge of the heavy band will do quite well with ratios. Once you get away from the good lift, the cold won't do much for ratios.
When the irresistible force meets the immovable object, someone could wind up under a death band even if the shortwave is a little sheared. Fun to track.
I'm going to say something before the models change and I can't say it anymore: At this point my area is one of the least likely parts of the greater NYC metro to have mixing issues this Friday/Saturday.
That's what I did this morning (guessed). Max error in either direction < 0.1". I may be a measuring wonk, but I have my limits.
I didn't put the boards out because I didn't want to disappoint the neighbors.
It was pretty much all snow here until the past hour. Light rain now with the occasional badly decomposed snowflake mixed in.
Snowfall total was 0.1" on 0.15" liquid equivalent. Have fun calculating that ratio.
Not sure, maybe, but I'm leaving open the possibility that we have one of those rare years where everything over performs like 2005. If nothing happens tomorrow or Friday, then probably not.
